There are people who say I’ve ruined their life. There are certainly things I’ve said that caused people shame. Do I think I’ve caused people to kill themselves? I don’t think so. But we deal with very, very vulnerable people. Those are things that haunt me. But I can’t live my life there because I’d never get anything else done. All I can do is say I’m sorry and do something different.”
